Deviry and N-ethi are not the same medication, although they are used for similar purposes. Deviry contains medroxyprogesterone, while N-ethi contains norethisterone. Both are different types of progestins (progesterone-like hormones) that help regulate your menstrual cycle and manage PCOS. Because they work slightly differently and have different strengths, they are not interchangeable. It is always safest to take the specific medication your doctor has prescribed for your body.

After finishing a course of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), a withdrawal bleed typically starts within 3 to 7 days, but it can sometimes take up to 14 days. Since it has been ten days, this delay can still be normal. I suggest waiting a few more days. If there is any chance of pregnancy, taking a home pregnancy test is a good next step. If your period does not arrive after 14 days, please contact your doctor to discuss the next steps.

Please stop taking Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) for now and contact your doctor or cardiologist immediately to get your chest pain evaluated. While medroxyprogesterone is commonly used for irregular periods, any new chest pain in someone with a heart condition needs prompt professional assessment to ensure your safety. Please seek medical attention right away.

What you are experiencing after taking Deviry (medroxyprogesterone) is actually quite common. This medication is designed to trigger a withdrawal bleed. With PCOS, the uterine lining can sometimes build up unevenly, which can lead to initial light spotting followed by a brief, more painful flow as your body sheds this lining. This is generally a normal response to the treatment. However, if your pain becomes severe or the bleeding is extremely heavy, please reach out to your doctor to ensure you stay comfortable and supported.

To help keep your periods regular, Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is commonly prescribed to be taken for 10 days, starting on Day 16 of your menstrual cycle (counting the first day of your period as Day 1). However, because PCOD affects everyone's hormone levels differently, the exact day you should start can vary. I highly recommend discussing this with your gynecologist to get a personalized plan that is safe and effective for your body.

Deviry contains medroxyprogesterone acetate, which helps trigger a withdrawal bleed. It is very common for your period to start anywhere from 3 to 10 days?and sometimes up to two weeks?after taking the last tablet. Since your pregnancy test is negative, the delay is likely just your body taking a little extra time to respond to the hormonal shift. Stress, anxiety, or minor hormonal imbalances can also cause a delay. Please try to relax and give your body a few more days. If your period does not start within 14 days of finishing the medication, please consult your doctor for a gentle evaluation.
